I have to disagree there, I have huge reindeer ones with antlers and all...on each of the antlers there are 6 jingly bells...they are the best; although I've had them so long because the jingling gets annoying after a while and I switch to 'sensible' slippers.

no one owns cooler slippers than me. only ones that are equally cool. and yours sound equally cool (especially when it's not christmas)

This is a nice thread and i thought i would post something too, to cheer myself up.

1) I'm 25 (as of march) born and bred in somerset. Studied marine biology and then did a PhD in portsmouth, lived there for 6 years and made some of the best friends in my life.

2) I'm currently living in California working at my first postdoc. Its a scarey phase in my life and one of the scariest things I've done but i believe in no regrets so it had to be done. I have made some very nice friends and work on limb regeneration, which I'm very passionate about.

3) My friends from portsmouth call me oohh arrr..... hehe

4) From jan-march 09 i went traveling with some friends, we went to the US, NZ, Oz and thailand. I had the best time of my life and even though it cost me all of my savings it was worth it. 5) I'm not sure if i believe in god, I feel I'm more wiccan than any other religion but no longer practice. I think about getting back into it.

6) god or no god, i wish to live a moral life and be a good person, even if it makes me a marter.

7) I'm dyslexic!

I'm to trusting and open my heart too easily. This means more pain, but maybe it means more love too

9) if I start something i finish it, I start a course, book, film, relationship or anything. I keep trying. It takes me a long time to say ok its not worth it. Why i find letting relationships go difficult. I feel the need to make it work, so I'm not a failure i guess....

One of my friends is a "farm girl" and at our uni christmas party she said "i'm NOT geting up to dance until the combine harvester song comes on" - since I organised it. We arranged for the first song to the the Combine Harvester song...dedicated to my friend hahahaha.

1. I am 28 and I was born and raised and am still living in Cork!2. I am QA analyst for software products, but what I would really like to do is work in a job that makes a difference, like nursing.3. I have 2 black belts in karate, but cant raise my leg above my head now as I gave it up4. I love snowboarding and fractured my tailbone while doing it 5. My favourite indulgence is to eat liquorice allsorts in bed while watching a DVD. And I hate to share them 6. Travelling is my addiction, I lived in NZ for 3 years, Oz for one and my favourite country is the States. Am going to London for xmas too 7. Asparagus scares me8. I am a total Trekkie9. I'd rather watch a soccer match than anything else on TV (LFC fan )10. I have a fear of singing in public, and wont even hum a tune in the car if my boyfriend is there. But when I'm driving alone - its like a very bad opera!!

my Mum sings all the time - sometimes you'll say something and she'll burst into song (this makes her sound like a nutter, lol, but it's just her messing around!) and insists she's better than me. The truth is we both sound awful, but she still likes to insist she's got the better voice.
